Food Safety Standards Introduction

Food safety standards ensure the food we eat is safe, of high quality, and produced in a way that minimizes risks. The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) in Australia and Europe developed the British Retail Consortium (BRC), now known as the Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standard (BRCGS) and Safety Quality Foods (SQF). Over the years, more standards have emerged, reshaping the global approach to food safety. These standards cover food manufacturing, food distribution, food service, pet foods, and more. This online food safety standards course reviews these standards and why they matter.
